On the Anisotropy of the Stochastic Gravitational Wave Background from Sub-Horizon-Collapsed Primordial Black Hole Mergers

Stefano Profumo, Fengwei Yang

We study the properties of the stochastic gravitational wave background (SGWB) resulting from the mergers of primordial black holes (PBH) that formed from the collapse of sub-horiz…

Long-baseline quantum sensor network as dark matter haloscope

Min Jiang, Taizhou Hong, Dongdong Hu +8

Ultralight dark photons constitute a well-motivated candidate for dark matter. A coherent electromagnetic wave is expected to be induced by dark photons when coupled with Standard-…

Probing Early Universe Supercooled Phase Transitions with Gravitational Wave Data

Charles Badger, Bartosz Fornal, Katarina Martinovic +8

We investigate the reach of the LIGO/Virgo/KAGRA detectors in the search for signatures of first-order phase transitions in the early Universe. Utilising data from the first three…

Report of the Topical Group on Cosmic Probes of Fundamental Physics for for Snowmass 2021

Rana X. Adhikari, Luis A. Anchordoqui, Ke Fang +118

Cosmic Probes of Fundamental Physics take two primary forms: Very high energy particles (cosmic rays, neutrinos, and gamma rays) and gravitational waves. Already today, these probe…

Detection of Early-Universe Gravitational Wave Signatures and Fundamental Physics

Robert Caldwell, Yanou Cui, Huai-Ke Guo +34

Detection of a gravitational-wave signal of non-astrophysical origin would be a landmark discovery, potentially providing a significant clue to some of our most basic, big-picture…

Implications for First-Order Cosmological Phase Transitions from the Third LIGO-Virgo Observing Run

Alba Romero, Katarina Martinovic, Thomas A. Callister +5

We place constraints on the normalized energy density in gravitational waves from first-order strong phase transitions using data from Advanced LIGO and Virgo's first, second and t…

Searching for Dark Photon Dark Matter in LIGO O1 Data

Huai-Ke Guo, Keith Riles, Feng-Wei Yang +1

Dark matter exists in our Universe, but its nature remains mysterious. The remarkable sensitivity of the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) may be able to s…

Dark Matter Annihilation from Nearby Ultra-compact Micro Halos to Explain the Tentative Excess at ~1.4 TeV in DAMPE data

Fengwei Yang, Meng Su, Yue Zhao

The tentative 1.4 TeV excess in the spectrum measured by The DArk Matter Particle Explorer (DAMPE) motivates the possible existence of one or more local dark matter concen…
